No Crying In Baseball

Welcome to Junior Pottymouth, sitting in for Patti who is hiding out in the mountains for a week. Junior’s bf Gunnar (you may have heard of him) and Cal Ripken Collegiate Baseball league legend Jordan Westberg combine for one of those stats you can’t believe people track. Pottymouth dazzles with Elly Math, and Bobby Witt just keeps hitting since the all star break. Cal Ripken Collegiate Baseball league legend James Outman is Back, Man. Pottymouth’s former bf Jarren Duran brings home the ASG MVP. Welcome back to pissy Joe Kelly from the 60 day. Alec Burleson is now on Patti’s no-fly list due to Trump celly, and now many STL guys are suspect. Nick Castellanos list of home runs at auspicious times continues to grow. Listen for the list! Thom Brennaman may or may not have learned that slurs are bad, and maybe Moneyball doesn’t mean what you think it means. The Syracuse Mets La-Crosstrain with the Haudenosaunee Confederacy and show how meaningful a “theme” night can really be. Hey, why is the ASG going back to ATL? NOTHING HAS CHANGED since it was taken away. Watch the Women’s World Cup! We say, ”So much cool math out there – I wish I knew how to do it,” “Is this hopeless? I’m never gonna be jacked,” and “Very Ripkenesque, shall we say?” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Better late than never as we squeeze this episode in between the Derby and the ASG. Will, Andres, and Zach do Patti proud with defense that may be lucky but is definitely sexy. Jarren Duran has the f*ck ‘em shirt (and soon Pottymouth will too) but Vaughn has the f*ck ‘em attitude. Kiké is on the bump trash talking Kyle from Waltham, while Kevin and Whit are on the outs. Wander Franco solidifies his spot on the NCiB no-fly list and there’s no coming back. Do you want to own a baseball team? Keep your eye on the ball… er Ballers and it can happen. You’ll have to trust us on our Derby picks since we didn’t report out till after, but we keep each other honest.

West Coast Correspondent Deborah brings her field report from an Oakland Ballers game where it’s always Grateful Dead night, and has Patti wishing for a guest announcing gig. Even in Pottymouth’s absence we check in on Jarren Duran and his f*ck em shirt, and Elly getting all team-matey. MJ Melendez gets the Dynasty Card of his dreams from local fans, Jack Suwinski helps PNC Park run out of home run fireworks. Everything is Just Fine on Deborah’s fantasy team because of Max Fried, a welcome ASG nod to Jesse Chavez, and a late ASG add of Heliot Ramos. Patti shares the joy of a last minute decision to catch James Woods’ debut with Pottymouth. He is Very Tall. We cross train by welcoming Jessica Campbell as the first woman to coach in the NHL, and checking in on multiple opportunities for Bay Area women’s soccer. Just in time for the Home Run Derby, we walk you through the new rules. We say “Are you more of a Lisa Simpson or more of a Hermione,” “If you’re in your 20’s, there’s a good chance you’re a Spencer,” and “I did spend some taxpayer dollars explaining baseball.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

We puzzle through giving benefit of the doubt, trusting one’s gut, and considering suspect timing, plus steaming nose emojis when evaluating the off the field actions of players. Jackson Chourio is hot and Pottymouth is here for it. OMG, José Iglesias! Patti’s new pitcher Gavin Stone nearly has a Maddux, We learn what auto body skills have to do with custom cleats – thanks to Bryson Stott. Our police blotter ensures that we will always be a little afraid of ballpark escalators, and amused by the sliding scale of sticky stuff. Things are hopping in the CPBL with the Lions winning the first half, Yu Chang with the other Guardians, and a potential international baseball partnership among leagues. We question the sponsorship partnership between the Lake County Captains and Roto Rooter resulting in thrones of a different kind behind the plate. And Ashton goes bananas. We say “Maybe he should not have done the touching and just hit the home run,” “We’re wearing reading glasses – you can hear it in our voices,” and “I’m not paying to sit on a toilet, you can’t make me.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Like a fine single malt scotch, this super-sized episode is packed with sophisticated flavors. We honor the passing of Willie Mays by sharing his legacy through words and not numbers. We look at the first steps that are the Rickwood Field game with the first all-Black umpire team, through the eyes of Masyn Winn, one of the few Black players on the game’s roster, and how far we have to go. In our boyfriend segment we note numerous names on the IL, gigantic hits, and a tiny, adorable (cheers!) first pitch. We may have kicked off our Dylan Crews Watch. Our Police Blotter features the first game won on a pitch clock violation walk off. And Pottymouth leads a deep dive into the cultural significance of Grimace. We say, “Boom! F*&k! Boom! F*&k!,” “WebMD doesn’t have Craig Counsell saying ‘walk it off!’,” and “Willie Mays would have totally been a boyfriend.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Jonah and José spend Father’s Day weekend shoring up their Dad power. Masyn and Joey have us rethinking our ROY predictions. More of Patti’s pitchers hit the IL, and Pottymouth admits to over-gloating. That’s a real thing. Well-respected umpire Pat Hoberg is the first official to run afoul of MLB’s sports betting rules but he does not think that’s the case. On the happy betting side, Toronto’s 50/50 raffle is changing lives. The Cards crosstrain with the NBA, and Curt Miller, head coach of the Sparks, talks Pride Month visibility. If it’s Bull Durham: A New Musical, does that mean we missed the old musical? We say, “Here I am on summer break talking about splitting infinitives,” “Less adorable, more adult beverage,” and “I have like 1,000 follow up questions and you haven’t even told me the story yet.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Join us as we math it out, suss it out, and legitimately incorporate the phrase “Tequila Shots” into a sports discussion. Pottymouth’s roster has an abundance of Ellys and a teaching moment about catching home runs in a full beer. Her recent history is dotted with Dodgers Hernandi, one for heroics, one for the dangers of being mic’d up while at work. Patti’s team has a pitcher getting booed in Yankee Stadium for all the right reasons, and a late roster add coming through big. Bfs past and once and forever show up with the slams. We roll Mental Health Month on into June as MLB players speak out and support their own. In our Police Blotter, Tucupita Marcano gets Pete Rose-d, and Ty Cobb’s granddaughter gets booted for trying to bring reason to a private Facebook group. The Phils and Mets lean in hard to their London visit, and Pottymouth comes through big on her NBA crosstraining assignment. Kelsie does it again. Happy Pride, everyone! We say, “known breaker of people,” “I have two thoughts and it will be amazing if I remember both of them,” and, “look at your local government helping people have a good time.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Josh Gibson finally gets his due as greatest hitter of all time, now let’s name the award after him. Stats from the Negro Leagues are finally integrated into the MLB stats and we see how opportunity affects counting stats vs rate stats. Winn and Volpe snap some streaks and in one case we end up with a DiMaggio sandwich. We lose more bfs to the IL – Grissom is back out, Means and Wells are season-ending out. Patti is grateful Yoshinobu is holding his own and her closer is back. Joey Gallo is in line for dad power now that the secret is out. Although we cannot endorse flinging gloves into the stands, we do feel for Jorge Lopez. The NCAA baseball tournament is on, and we check in on our adopted D1 and DIII teams. We crosstrain with women’s hockey champions, and Celtics doing good work. We say, “Quite the pucker there,” “It was condiment Friday. Put a cardigan over it and it’s dressy,” and “I can’t believe I couldn’t put 2 and 2 together and get 7.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

We share important life lessons from the wide world of baseball, including, keep your popcorn close, watch the rebound, and tipping the bullpen cart driver is good karma. Patti risks killing streaks by bringing up CLE wins and Volpe hits. Former NCiB boyfriends give Pottymouth a chance to talk about her favorite play, stealing home. LaMonte Wade, Jr takes the upcoming Rickwood Field game honoring the Negro Leagues as a chance to talk representation right now. Are the Birmingham Southern Panthers the new America’s team? They will be competing in the College World Series representing a school that will no longer exist at that time. We cross-train with the Professional Women’s Hockey League, talk upgrades in Sacramento, and lament US WBC locations while low-key making travel plans. We say, “Warmer cities are more problematic, generally,” “The first vegetarian you get, throw them my way, and “It’s a long, stupid story, so of course I’m going to go into it.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

In which we pin down math around catching foul balls, our medical thoughts of pregnancy vs belly button rings (congrats to Cole Tucker and Vanessa Hudgens BTW), and our astute observation that betting with an illegal bookie is illegal whether it’s on baseball or not. It’s in the name. Elly continues to exceed expectations, Vaughn does not but maybe if he eats a sandwich things will kick in. Alan Rickman and Adley Rutchsman combine for Patti’s favorite homerun call. We learn that it doesn’t matter if it’s just rosin and sweat, it just can’t be on the glove. Sorry, Ronel. Jenny Cavnar and Julia Morales make broadcasting history. Valerie Perez goes full Bananaball. David Rubenstein sure looks like a man of the people and while that’s fun to watch we are holding out for definitive proof. We say “you’ve just taken this the way of belly button rings,” It’s gotta stack up to Grease and Footloose,’ and “Shoulda just taken a plane to Vegas.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Welcome to West Coast Corresponded Deborah, filling in for Patti who is off celebrating our intern’s graduation. Deborah’s bfs are making up for lack of bats with all the steals. Elly continues to climb the all time steal boards, and Zack Short becomes Zack Short Stay. Willson Contreras’ injury leads to some choices about how to avoid catcher interference dangers – robo umps? Catcher’s box? How ‘bout that other Contreras, leading the Brewers? Paul Skenes debuts to comparisons to Stras, including Cutch batting lead off for both. We have to talk about an interpreter but we’d rather tell animal stories. Stay tuned for snakes, weirdly fast turtles, and a chill pelican. Hey! Make your travel plans to see the Ballers! Deborah brings some Bay Area cross-training balance to the all Boston all the time situation. We say, “general skullduggery,” “I’m glad these girls have something to scream for,” and “a butterfly flapped its wings in Argentina, y’know?” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

It’s the Cinco de Mayo episode where the limes are organic and the salt is Kosher. Pottymouth’s Vaughn Grissom watch is rewarded, Luis lights it up, and Maysin makes her roster. For Patti, John Means business and Jack Suwinski can sure time a hit. Josés are in trouble and just when you think he can’t achieve any more firsts, Judge gets ejected. Did you see that Luis Arráez trade coming? We sure did not. The Police Blotter teaches us the difference between Community Labor and Community Service, and maybe the MLBPA should have enlisted the moms sooner to get the unis fixed. We share a minor league beer tip, and mull the potential consequences of sticking with a rally sausage. So much crosstraining for our Boston host. We say, “It;s a hard tossup between Short and Booser,” “Sit on the Wee Green Monster, “ and ”There are two kinds of people in the world – the ones who want to know that the baseball players are going commando, and those who do not.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

As we lament the boyfriends we did not select for our fantasy teams, we observe Passover with mezcal. Should we have gone with Logan O’Hoppe and Joey Ortiz? Solid maybe. Mike Tauchman and the oppo Tauchos? Unrelated to the Mexico series tacos, of course. Patti’s guys Zach, Will, and Evan are crushing the multi-hit games, and Pottymouth favorite Elly is on track for a ridiculous number of stolen bases (Pottymouth’s math is SOLID.) LAD pitching is not just crazy good, it is death-defying. Josh Naylor gives us an “always gonna be a boyfriend” moment. Our Police Blotter features a few takes on the rules don’t apply to me viewpoint, as both the “victim” and the enforcer. Houston and Colorado take the Show on the road to Mexico City, and a taco tour ensues. We need a study done on dad strength vs. hamate surgery superpowers. We say “I love me a good loophole,” “spanked with Mezcal,” and “a brief moment of shirtlessness.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Kenley Jansen and Craig Kimbrel are climbing to the top of the all time saves list so the takeaway is don’t yeet the ball from the last out. Looking at you, Colton “more cowbell” Cowser. Andrew hits homer #300, Adley hits grand slam #1, and Josh hits his head. On purpose. Neto can’t get a day off, Oswaldo can but Pottymouth says please don’t – or maybe yes? Elly remains good at baseball, and Patrick is finally off the IL. Patti loves the collaborative “people’s celly” of the BAL hydration station – because there’s no “I” in Team. Pottymouth considers a Booser jersey, and a game day on a lazy river. We say, “big-ass leg bone,” “that sounded a little dirty,” and “”Jinxarella.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Our first visit to OPACY this season was an anticipated debut, a miracle of (not)rain, and a much heralded yet underwhelming Jackson vs Jackson smackdown. And lots of attention to the number seven. Elly has us considering a road trip to CIN, and Vaughn makes us think Worcester is nice this time of year. Zach has six runs to his credit in only one game, but the wrong direction. Spencer is down for the count but now we know more about internal braces, so there’s that. Brianna Wakefield’s knuckleball is our favorite pitch of the week. Julio Urias is buried in misdemeanors of his own making, and Ohtani’s interpreter apparently used his powers for evil. Venezuela hosts their 14th annual Women’s Baseball Championship and prepares for Thunder Bay. And we’re off to cross train with hockey. We say “Lions, just lions, all the time. Rawr,” “my betting consists of when a relative gives me a scratch off lottery ticket,” and “We’re gonna have an L of a good time.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

We workshop the LMB acronym to account for the Mexican League signing players of questionable character. We aren’t just yanking Verdugo’s chain, we are teaching you valuable vocabulary in multiple languages. We review your four options when you catch a home run ball during a game, starting with It Belongs To You. A little over a week in and our guys with slow starts are getting the bats in gear. We’ve got home runs bouncing off gloves and walls, we’ve got new nicknames (Turn and Burn O’Hearn!), and platelet infusions. Elly impresses off the field too, conducting his first press conference all in English. Wish wish Stephen Strasburg well on his retirement and as Nats fans we thank him for his service. Pottymouth turns our attention to Baseball United, the Dubai-based program that is attracting lots of attention and dollars from former MLB greats, and now Ronald Acuña Jr as well. We remain suspicious. Shane and Spencer, just this Saturday, join the ranks of seriously injured pitchers and the MLBPA and MLB argue over the role of the pitch clock in all of this. Compton’s MLB Youth Academy hosts the BFA Women’s College Club Baseball Championships. Patti and Pottymouth got up early Saturday morning to make friends with Yankee fans for an important cause. We participated in a live stream marathon “Pinstripes for a Cause” to help raise money for the World Parkinson Coalition. If you want to see us on coffee instead of craft beer, we start at 1:30 into the stream. Please consider adding your donation and add “Pinstripes for a Cause” or No Crying in Baseball to the notes. We say, “That’s a Darwin test,” “One set of biceps was more productive than the other,” and “Is he pulling one of your six chains?” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Welcome to Season 8 of No Crying in Baseball! Join us as we laugh, fight, make (probably) terrible predictions, and drink beer from the North (and the northeast). Pottymouth is team Jeff, and Patti is team Rhys and everything gets back to Dustin and Manny. We talk Opening Day – Did Patti write the talking points for the new Os ownership? She’s definitely shopping for a Maryland Tough Baltimore Strong tee shirt. Tyler is Pottymouth’s new best friend and she is feeling good about her Oswaldo and Chourio picks and already lamenting Royce. A’s fans did what A’s fans do best. We love that the TEX World Series rings have hidden leather from winning baseballs (and a map!) but are a little worried about the ring tops getting lost. We say, “a maple leaf off the tree,” “do not travel after questionable oat milk,” and “you gave me the boring kerfuffle.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

As we head to Opening Day, we bring you our fantasy lineups, walk you through the whole Ohtani kerfuffle, and Optimist Patti enjoys her new nickname. Blake Snell finds a team at last, while Francisco Lindor and Edwin Diaz make a video showing their love for Puerto Rico. Optimist Patti makes a pro/con list for Peter Angelos. There are no winners. Our Police Blotter, in addition to a primer on MLB gambling rules for players and staff, highlights TB’s (not Tampa Bay’s) alternate Spring Training, and either a “Breach of Etiquette” or “dick move,” you pick. Pottymouth considers fake phone numbers as a way to swing access to breakfast baseball, and Patti explains Prospect Promotion Incentive in order to will Jackson Holliday into an early debut. While the rest of the sportsworld obsesses over brackets, Pottymouth crosstrains with the NBA. We say, “You anthropomorphized the jerseys,” “You get Short and Beer and I get Wisdom and Burger and its a party,” and “You just turned into a team owner at arbitration.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

In a weakened moment of falling for Pottymouth logic, Patti agrees to a change in our fantasy team rules and we select pitchers from two teams instead of just one. Pottymouth shares her picks from the Mariners and Phillies, and Patti goes Dodgers/Orioles. We don’t think Josh Winckowski’s excuse will get you out of jury duty but it worked for him, sort of. What’s a “brace procedure” and why are we just hearing of this? The Rancho Cucamonga Quakes allow Pottymouth to teach us more Spanish vocabulary words. The Seoul Series brings us exhibition games, an early start to the regular season, cheerleaders, and an introduction to professional basketball player Mamiko Tanaka, who also happens to be married to that Shohei guy. We close with Nick Castellano’s milk or wine wisdom. We say “I appreciate a fellow Pottymouth when I see one,” “We’re shooting for the wine but we’re drinking the Blarney Stoned,” and “recovery periods vary by owner.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

In our last week of profiling position players, or “Adley Day” in Patti’s world, we pick our guys from the Os and ATL. For BAL, Ryan O’Hearn gets the Pottymouth nod with an extra point for Bull Durham, while Patti sticks with her once and forever catcher. For The Hammers, Patti picks spring training standout Eli White and Pottymouth corrects a wrong while selecting Orlando Arcia. Joey finds a home at home, bad boy Josh retires, Mookie heads to short, and Lance gets tossed from the dang bullpen. Punishments come down for the LVBP brawl, women “pave the way” in Road to the Show, and the proposed Vegas ballpark distracts everyone from complaining about pants. Watch the kids play in Spring Breakout! We say, “Distracted from pants by armadillos,” I hate it when things f*&k up my pickle,” and discuss condiments a surprising amount.
